Over the past year my clutch pedal has gotten stiffer and stiffer on my 89 LX. So stiff that im sure its going to break the cable.....Now through the years i have replaced the stock clutch quadrant with an after market peice and aswell the cable. I also used a centerforce clutch that i had notices started to slip on me a couple months ago so i decided to replace it hoping that it would also be the stiff clutch pedal problem but to my disappointment the pedal is still stiff. So then i looked in to the cable as it has had many abusive days and replaced it but still i find a very stiff clutch pedal.
Now i have not looked at the pedal assemblies but i was wondering if anyone else has come across this same problem.....My pedal assemblies are the orignal ones in the vehicle and have over 150,000miles of hard driving on them. Im wondering if the bushings are worn out and causing the pedal to be stiff for several minutes. Once you drive the car for 15 minutes the clutch pedal goes back to normal until it sits for awhile. then the pedal is stiff again...
If anyone has run into this problem could you let me know what you have found before i start tearing into the pedal assemblies or the pressure plate again....
Thanks
